Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Quaid, if this bill doesn't get passed, we'll go to the new year. Then it has to get through the House of Commons. Then it has to go to the Senate. Then if the Senate has any amendments, it has to come back to the House of Commons with them.
Give us some of your concerns about the delay in the process. Is there anything else we can do in-between to deal with this? Even if we have political consensus in the chamber to move this as quickly as possible, our schedule is such that it won't be until the new year—and probably clause-by-clause and so forth will take some time. Then we have to send it to the other place. The other place sometimes can take some time. Then, again, an amendment would have to come back us in our chamber.
